Was that an AMD design decision, or a board partner design decision though? I'm asking because I don't know the answer, not because it is some sort of "gotcha" question. I don't think AMD makes any of their own video cards, at least not in the consumer space. So the question is, did they spec...

I'd say it's a "both/and" not an "either/or" 1.) PCI-SIG should not have pushed the 12VHPWR standard. It was obviously rushed and poorly tested. And once the problem became apparent in the field, they should have taken action. They will - of course - say they did, and point to the updated...

Yeah, Nvidia just took a major stake in Intel.... It's all AI now.

Look, I understand where you are coming from, but if this cheap little device can prevent a meltdown of a multi-thousand dollar build, then it is silly not to. Nvidia is unlikely to make any changes to the power connector either way. They have been completely intransigent on this issue. And...

Also, Remember my control box above? Well there has been another change of plans here. Originally I was going to use two Aquaero 6's one as a master and one as a slave to give them the fan outputs and sensor inputs I needed. To be clear, I would never have bought them with the intent of...

Alrighty, So there has been progress, but it has also been slow. There has been a lot of last minute making of custom wiring. The top radiator needs 5 wires: - Two 4 pin wires for the fans, Fan1 and Fan2 - Pump Wire, with splitter for boiled little pump fan (4 pin extension with splitter) -...

Aquacomputer didn't design Nvidia's GPU's. They are just coming up with a solution since Nvidia refuses to do it right. And Aquacomputer is a pretty good company.

This is a neat little product. I may just have to pick one up when I get around to assembling the game machine with the 5090. If it fits with the Alphacool water block I bought that is. I haven't looked closely at it yet, but the EKWB block I had for my 4090 recessed access to the power...

Just some bends, adapters and the like getting a much needed bath in a Home Depot bucket. People forget how important cleaning is, even new parts. It's almost shocking the amount of machining oils have risen to the top, and that's after giving them a spritz of vinegar, a quick brush with a...

I thought this was going to be the weekend I fill and leak test the radiator portion of the loop. The Bad News: I overlooked some fittings I needed. The good news: MicroCenter has them. The Bad News: MicroCenter closes at 6pm on Sundays The Worse news: I didn't realize this until I got...

Yeah, I knew already before starting this project that I really don't have the time for this **** anymore, and actually executing on the project has been proof of that. That was kind of the motivation though. I want to do it once. Build an overkill water cooling loop that I will never need...

Oh, and by the way,something tells me there will be a 4090 and matching water block in the FS/FT subforum in the not too distant future 😁

So, my solution for the "weekends are not long enough and I don't want to be stuck without a work machine on Monday" problem is relatively simple in retrospect. I just need another CPU cooler. Something I can use in my workstation temporarily, allowing me to break down the water loop and take...

I just realized I forgot to update work on the electrical control box. First I bought a Delta dual volt (12v/5v) power supply from Mouser. I bought a large-is (10"x10"x4") electrical junction box to use as a control box for the fans and pumps. The intent was for this box to house the power...

That's a shame, but I really appreciate you trying. I see so many of these Xenforo forum implementations that operate that way, I just assumed it was a simple option. My apologies for requesting something a little bigger than expected 😅

The whole point is that I want to run it smaller :p

Hey, Quick question. I have seen other Xenforo implementations where the forum will scale to the full width of the browser window. On TheFPSReview Forums it scales up to a certain width and then stops. Here is an extreme example if I go full screen at 4k (which I never do, just for...

Young people often do make bad decisions. I did when I was young too. I even smoked actual cigarettes for a while (but never indoors, even when it was very cold out. I don't think it ever hit -40, but -20 was definitely a thing that happened) What concerns me is that there are grown ***...

When did I say anything about regulation or governing? We just need to be real about the facts, and then people can do with that as they want, as long as they are not harming others. The issue is that a lot of people (especially young people) are making dumb decisions because they think it is...
